We all know why we love Ol' Brown Ears...what are your favorite songs of his?

My personal favorites:

"Cottleston Pie"
"When" (Peter Sellers ep)
"I've Never Harmed An Onion"
"You and I and George" ("The record sold two copies. I bought one and George bought one...where were you?")
"What A Wonderful World" (with a real puppy)
"The Cat Came Back" (and ask Skeeter Muppet about the randy little song parody I wrote for this song)
"I Hope That Something Better Comes Along"

I also would've loved to hear him sing a Tom Lehrer song or two...

Hmm, my favorites by Rowlf would have to be:

1. Eight Little Notes

2. The A.A. Milne song he sings. The title escapes me right now, but it had the word "pie" in it?

3. I hope that something better comes along


I have more favorites, but those are all I can remember right now. :smile:

I forgot about "Eight Little Notes"! That was a great one. I wish he had appeared on "Sesame Street" to sing it with Don Music and/or the Count. (Yes, he did sing it with Don Music in one of my TMS outlines, but that isn't an official rendition of it.)

Does anyone have "Ol' Brown Ears Is Back"? E-mail me and we'll discuss trading a copy of it for ANYTHING I have that I can copy. I'm also looking for any Fraggle Rock CD's too.

One other song I "fergot", HA-HEEEEE! I love Rowlf and John Denver's version of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas".
